UNIVERSITY OF PUGET SOUND - 2015 SCHOOL OF PHYSICAL THERAPY ADVISING MANUAL
PREREQUISITES FOR ADMISSION TO THE
DOCTOR OF PHYSICAL THERAPY PROGRAM
WASHINGTON COMMUNITY & TECHNICAL COLLEGE
COMMON COURSE NUMBERING
Students must have a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university and
may prepare for Physical Therapy while pursuing any major course of study. Some
majors may be designed as pre-Physical Therapy, but students are cautioned to not
assume that programs designed as such will necessarily benefit their application.
1. Human Anatomy and Physiology (laboratories must be included): EXSC 221
& 222 or equivalent.
2. Fundamental Chemistry (laboratories must be included): CHEM 110 & 120,
or CHEM 115 & 230, or equivalent.
3. General College Physics (laboratories must be included): PHYS 111 & 112,
or PHYS 121 & 122, or equivalent.
4. Elements of Applied Statistics: MATH 160, or PSYC 201 & 301, or
equivalent.
5. Human Behavior: One course in Psychology or Sociology emphasizing
human behavior or disability. Puget Sound courses that fulfill the requirement
include PSYC 101 Introduction to Psychology; PSYC 320 Psychological
Disorders; SOAN 101 Introduction to Sociology; SOAN 202 The Family in
Society: Critical Perspectives; SOAN 206 Deviance and Social Control; or
SOAN 370 Disability, Identity, and Power.
Prerequisite courses should be completed within 10 years of entry into the program. If
a longer time has elapsed, the applicant must submit a letter explaining how the
knowledge has been kept current.
All prerequisite courses must be taken for a letter grade, and students must earn at
least a "B" (3.0) grade in each course. Because course content can be divided into
specific courses in different ways, the faculty highly recommends that each science
prerequisite course sequence be completed at a single college or university.
